“I really liked it at first but me using over and over again is very hard to clean... the brush is very easy to use but water gets stuck in the metal so it kinda sucks.... but it’s a great idea”
Hi Brooke,
We're so sorry you're having trouble cleaning your FinalStraw!! We recommend cleaning your FinalStraw with soap and water. When washing it be sure to stretch the metal pieces apart and get the outside of the silicone tubing nice and soapy before giving it a rinse.
Once you rinse, fold your FinalStraw in a “V” formation and give it a little shake to let the water out. Then, place your “V” formation straw in a cup to let it dry. Once dry, fold back into your case and you are good to go!
At least once a month, we recommend you put your FinalStraw into the dishwasher folded into a "V" formation to allow for cleaning in between the metal pieces. Additionally, you have the option to sterilize your FinalStraw in boiling water with a little bit of baking soda.
Should you have any further questions please let us know and contact our customer support team at halp@finalstraw.com!
Have a fin-tastic day!

“Awesome! I keep it on my keys so I have it whenever I go out. My city just recently switched to paper disposable straws only, so it’s been a lifesaver.
I love the cleaning brush, but sometimes it collapses when i’m trying to clean my straw. Like if there was one flaw.”
“This my 2nd Final Straw. I do think this one is slightly flimsy, my original one was super sturdy when opened. I do like the smaller container this comes in and the cleaning mechanism is much better.”
